Предложени формулировки на темите[edit]
Тема #1: Healthy, Inclusive Communities | Здрави, приобщаващи общности[edit]
Към 2030 г., доброволческата култура на Уикимедия ще бъде забавна, възнаграждаваща и включваща както съществуващите, така и новодошлите. Ще посрещаме нови доброволци в нашето движение и ще ги напътстваме, за да се уверим, че получават опит и продължават да участват в проектите. Хората от всяка група ще се чувстват част от мрежа от групи и организации, с дълбоки връзки. В резултат на това, нашето движение ще расте както по размер, така и по характер, а н същото време нашите проекти ще процъфтяват под общите ни грижи.
Тема #2: The Augmented Age | Епохата на разширената реалност[edit]
До 2030 г. уикимедианското движение активно ще използва технологични иновации, за да помогне на доброволците да бъдат много по-творчески и продуктивни. Ще използваме машинно обучение и дизайн, за да направим знанията лесни за достъп и лесни за употреба. За да се увеличи значително качественото и количественото съдържание на повече езици, доброволците например ще имат достъп до по-добри машинни преводи. Ще представим и организираме знания по начини, които подобряват това как хората учат и допринасят - извън браузърите, приложенията и енциклопедията.
Тема #3: A Truly Global Movement | Истинско глобално движение[edit]
До 2030 г. ще бъдем наистина глобално движение. По-специално, ще насочим вниманието си към региони, които все още не обслужваме достатъчно добре: Азия, Близкия изток, Африка и Латинска Америка. Ще работим с общности от читатели, сътрудници и партньори в тези части на света. Ще създадем място за нови форми на приноси, които отразяват тези региони (референции, цитати и др.). Ще изградим информираност за силата на свободното знание и ще преодолеем бариерите пред достъпа. Ще изградим продукти, адаптирани към нуждите на тези нови членове на нашето движение.
Тема #4: The Most Respected Source of Knowledge | Най-уважаваният източник на знание[edit]
Ще работим за все по-точно и проверимо съдържание. До 2030 г. проектите на Уикимедия ще се разглеждат като най-висококачественият, неутрален и подходящ източник на знание. Ще увеличим дълбочината на наличните знания и ще поддържаме нашите стандарти за проверимо и неутрално съдържание. Ще поканим експерти да се присъединят към нас. Ще помогнем на хората да разберат как нашите процеси ни правят надеждни. Ще показваме най-подходящата информация на хората, когато и където се нуждаят от нея.
Тема #5: Engaging in the Knowledge Ecosystem | Ангагжиране в екосистемата на знанието[edit]
Ще изградим връзки с голямо разнообразие от организации, посветени на идеалите за свободно познание. Общностите на Уикимедия ще работят със съюзници, които не са знаели, че имат. Нашето съдържание и технологии ще се превърнат в централна част от формалното и неформалното образование по света. Ще работим заедно с водещи институции в областта на образованието, изкуствата, развлеченията, гражданското общество, управлението, науката и технологиите. Заедно, ще поканим ново поколение хора, които да учат, да създават и да се грижат за нарастващата библиотека от свободно знание за всички.

| 13 | C | 3 | We can stop trying to "help". Help doesnt work - we can show and teach, but not "nursing" all the time. We can advise, but we dont have time to wait for the slowest vessel in the convoy.

| 26 | A | 1 | Our influence on the world will grow in the future. Wikipedia can be the leading role model of volunteering, shared knowledge and the power of togetherness. Justine.toms (comments at the offline wiki seminar on 10 June in Sofia) | Leading role model |
| 27 | A | 1 | I don't think that there will be quite of a difference, unless we emphasize on the recruitment of more volunteers. Ilikeliljon (comments at the offline wiki seminar on 10 June in Sofia) | New volunteers |
| 28 | A | 2 | I think that this is the most relevant goal in our strategy, because without a strong, large and healthy community, we cannot achieve any of the rest of the goals. A lot more can be done about our inclusivity. Justine.toms (comments at the offline wiki seminar on 10 June in Sofia) | Leading role model |
| 29 | A | 4 | In my opinion, this theme is fourth in priority. Ilikeliljon (comments at the offline wiki seminar on 10 June in Sofia) | Prioirity |
| 30 | A | 4 | Our community needs to become more tolerant, patient towards the newbie editors, especially those coming from likeminded educational and cultural partners. Inclusivity requires that we do not tolerate the old editors with hundreds of thousands of edits to mistreat the newcomers. Spiritia (comments at the offline wiki seminar on 10 June in Sofia) | Patience |
| 31 | A | 4 | On one hand, we need to heal and strengthen our communities, and then to try to expand them. Live meetings can help a lot in this respect. There are vast opportunities for collaboration with many volunteering organizations, institutions (GLAM), NGO and civil organizations. Justine.toms (comments at the offline wiki seminar on 10 June in Sofia) | Community health, Partnerships |
| 32 | A | 4 | Attracting more volunteers. Ilikeliljon (comments at the offline wiki seminar on 10 June in Sofia) | New volunteers |
| 33 | A | 5 | Our movement needs to intensify the paartnerships with likeminded cultural, scientific and educational organizations, and to work for cultivating a more acceptable and accepting environment within our community. Spiritia (comments at the offline wiki seminar on 10 June in Sofia) | Partnerships |
| 34 | B | 1 | Wikipedia has always been a technological model for sharing, and it is good to have this preserved in future. Justine.toms (comments at the offline wiki seminar on 10 June in Sofia) | Leading role model |
| 35 | B | 1 | Technological advancement is inextricably linked with Wikipedia. Ket (comments at the offline wiki seminar on 10 June in Sofia) | Technological advancement |
| 36 | B | 2 | This goal is of crucial importance, otherwise we risk lagging behind the others. Augmented reality will be a major part of the communication of tomorrow (within in the next 5 years), and it is unthinkable to leave it out of our projects. Justine.toms (comments at the offline wiki seminar on 10 June in Sofia) | Leading role model |
| 37 | B | 2 | This goal is of crucial importance, otherwise we risk lagging behind the others. Augmented reality will be a major part of the communication of tomorrow (within in the next 5 years), and it is unthinkable to leave it out of our projects. Justine.toms (comments at the offline wiki seminar on 10 June in Sofia) | Leading role model |
| 38 | B | 2 | Some aspects of the Augmented Age are like double-edged sword: they can potentially bring equal and even bigger harm than benefit. For instance machine translations are still very far from perfect (and, frankly, I believe they will never be), especially in languages from different language families. However, to the people with less knowledge of languages and/or technical abilities (with less understanding of machine translations), this heavily promoted opportunity creates false sense of security, and also contributes to decrease in critical thinking and willingness to make efforts. Spiritia (comments at the offline wiki seminar on 10 June in Sofia) | Machine translations |
| 39 | B | 2 | The introduction of machine translations, as good as they may be, is wrong. Coverage of a variety of knowledge areas, and speed of contribution, are important, but not at the expense of quality. Writing an article is a creative process. The machine translations hinders this process ("Why shall I study a new language, if I can use a machine translation tool?") Ilikeliljon (comments at the offline wiki seminar on 10 June in Sofia) | Machine translations |
| 40 | B | 4 | We should not restrict ourselves to Augmented Reality only, but look around for other novelties. AR, together with the Internet of Things and the Virtual Reality will become the new forms of knowledge sharing. Justine.toms (comments at the offline wiki seminar on 10 June in Sofia) | Other technological novelties |
| 41 | B | 4 | The dissemination of technological infrastructure and individual gadgets facilitates the contribution. But it enables vandalisms, too. Ket (comments at the offline wiki seminar on 10 June in Sofia) | Facilitation of contributions |
| 42 | C | 1 | Wikipedia must reach each part of the world and be available to all people. Everyone needs access to knowledge; this may be valuable information about oneself, or about the others. Ilikeliljon (comments at the offline wiki seminar on 10 June in Sofia) | Global outreach |
| 43 | C | 1 | In these regions (Asia, Middle East, Africa, Latin America) lives the biggest part of the world population. It is important to include them. Спасимир (comments at the offline wiki seminar on 10 June in Sofia) | Global outreach |
| 44 | C | 4 | We should support the equal access to our resources. Justine.toms (comments at the offline wiki seminar on 10 June in Sofia) | Other technological novelties |
| 45 | C | 2 | The theme of having a truly global movement is important but unfortunately, we do not start from the same starting point. In many regions of the world there is not enough understanding of what encyclopedic (neutral, fact-checked, referenced) content is, because before producing it, they need to have been exposed to it as end users. Efforts and resources have to be invested in overcoming this difference, but in some regions of the world, this problem are more urgent problems that need to be solved first. Spiritia (comments at the offline wiki seminar on 10 June in Sofia) | No equal start |
| 46 | C | 2 | In promoting the Wikimedia movement globally, we also have to keep into consideration the issues of the net neutrality. Spiritia (comments at the offline wiki seminar on 10 June in Sofia) | Net neutrality |
| 47 | D | 1 | The reliable information will help people: researchers, students, teachers, to get attracted to contribute to Wikipedia, rather than avoid it. The trust and the usage of Wikipedia will increase with the reliable sourcing of the information. Спасимир (comments at the offline wiki seminar on 10 June in Sofia) | Reliability |
| 48 | D | 1 | The reliable information will help people: researchers, students, teachers, to get attracted to contribute to Wikipedia, rather than avoid it. The trust and the usage of Wikipedia will increase with the reliable sourcing of the information. Спасимир (comments at the offline wiki seminar on 10 June in Sofia) | Reliability |
| 49 | D | 1 | With objective and fact-checked information, Wikipedia can fight the dissemination of rumours, false news. Ket (comments at the offline wiki seminar on 10 June in Sofia) | Reliability |
| 50 | D | 2 | This is the most important theme, because if there is no trust in Wikipedia, all the rest is irrelevant. Ket (comments at the offline wiki seminar on 10 June in Sofia) | Reliability |
| 51 | D | 2 | Reliability is the most important topic. Спасимир (comments at the offline wiki seminar on 10 June in Sofia) | Not a goal by itself |
| 52 | D | 2 | This topic is closely related to Theme 1 with respect to the importance of attracting more new editors, especially with scientific backgrounds, and make the environment tolerant and attractive for them to contribute. Spiritia (comments at the offline wiki seminar on 10 June in Sofia) | Partnerships |
| 53 | D | 4 | It is necessary to have a strategy for attract expert knowledge (universities, educational institutions), which is relation with Theme E. Wikipedia can be considered the sum of all knowledge, i.e. the scope and the depth of its content have to be increated, to attract more experts and educated people. Ket (comments at the offline wiki seminar on 10 June in Sofia) | Reliability |
| 54 | E | 1 | Our influence on the world is enormous. Education nowadays is facing huge challenges and I believe that Wikimedia is capable of providing great solutions. Justine.toms (comments at the offline wiki seminar on 10 June in Sofia) | Challenges in education |
| 55 | E | 1 | Different generations have access and offer their contribution to the increase of human knowledge. The precise and verifiable knowledge in Wikipedia helps completing the textbooks, and helps the cultural institutions become more accessible. Ket (comments at the offline wiki seminar on 10 June in Sofia) | Increase of human knowledge |
| 56 | E | 1 | Building relations with various organizations and institutions will popularize the good practices and interesting approaches of Wikipedia. Спасимир (comments at the offline wiki seminar on 10 June in Sofia) | Partnerships |
| 57 | E | 2 | Again, this topic is closely related to Theme 1 with respect to the importance of attracting more new editors and making the environment tolerant and attractive for them to contribute. Spiritia (comments at the offline wiki seminar on 10 June in Sofia) | Partnerships |
| 58 | E | 2 | This is the second most important theme after Theme E, due to the outreach to wide community related to science, education and culture. Ket (comments at the offline wiki seminar on 10 June in Sofia) | Partnerships |
| 59 | E | 4 | Without involving the institutions and educational organization, Wikipedia risks self-restricting itself. Justine.toms (comments at the offline wiki seminar on 10 June in Sofia) | Partnerships |
| 60 | E | 5 | From the listed areas of collaboration, I would remove the 'entertainment' (as I don't see it relevant to the knowledge ecosystem). Also, w.r.t. the 'government', not in every country collaborating with government is a good idea. :) Spiritia (comments at the offline wiki seminar on 10 June in Sofia) | Partnerships |
| 61 | E | 5 | Educational institutions, universities, research organizations, governmental institutions. Knowledge as a bridge between international relations. Justine.toms (comments at the offline wiki seminar on 10 June in Sofia) | Partnerships |
Suggestions for rephrasing the statements[edit]
Theme #1 / A: Healthy, Inclusive Communities[edit]
By 2030, the Wikimedia volunteer culture will be safe, rewarding, and inclusive for both existing contributors and newcomers. We will welcome new volunteers to our movement and mentor them to ensure that they have a great experience and continue to participate in the projects. People from every background will feel part of a network of groups and organizations with deep relationships. As a result, our movement will grow both in size and in nature, as our projects flourish under our collective care.
- REPLACE "fun" WITH "safe"
Theme #4 / D: The Most Respected Source of Knowledge[edit]
We will work toward ever more accurate and verifiable content. By 2030, Wikimedia projects will be seen as the most high-quality, neutral, and relevant source of knowledge. We will increase the depth of knowledge available and maintain our standards for verifiable and neutral content. We will invite experts to join us. We will help people understand how our processes make us reliable.
- REMOVE the last sentence "We will show the most relevant information to people when and where they need it."
Theme #5 / E: Engaging the knowledge ecosystem[edit]
We will build relationships with a wide variety of organizations dedicated to the ideals of free knowledge. Wikimedia communities will work with allies that they didn’t know they had. Our content and technology will become a central part of formal and informal education around the world. We will partner with leading institutions in science, education, culture, arts, civil society, technologies. Together, we will invite a new generation of people who learn, create, and care for a growing library of free knowledge for all.
- REMOVE "entertainment", "government", ADD "culture"
- REORDER the institutions, starting with science, education, culture
